competed that day despite the fact he had a
sore throat and a bad chest cold.
"I think my whole problem can be traced
to that day," Waldrop says. "I ran when I
wasn't feeling well and it left me in a state of
fatigue. I haven't really felt good since then.
I'm just going to have to gradually get my
strength back before I run anymore."
Would you believe u? Football
practice starts at Carolina in just 1 8 days on
August 20. The Tar Heels open their season
in just six weeks on Sept. 14, meeting Ohio
University in Kenan Stadium.
Plans call for the Tar Heel players to
report back to campus on Aug. 18. The
players will undergo physical examinations
on Aug. 19 and also will pose that day for
pictures.
A week later on Aug. 26, newsmen from
around the conference will come to Chapel
Hill on Operation ACC Football. On that
day, the newsmen will interview Carolina
coach Bill Dooley and the Tar Heel players.
Bobby Jones is now a married man.
He and the lovely Tess West, a former

last Saturday and they are currently

Carolina crushed Campbell 12-2 here
Tuesday night to stretch their winning
streak to nine games idkch a tie for
second place in the Summer League
with an 18-12 record.
The victory represented a remarkable
comeback for the Tar Heels. A month
ago, Carolina had an 8-12 record and
the playoffs were in doubt. The hitting
was solid but the defense collapsed
during the earlier slump. Since then the
boots have been less frequent and the
pitchers have turned in 12 complete
games.
During the winning streak coach
Harry Lloyd has been going basically
with a three-man pitching rotation of
Mike Merritt, Tim Collins and Bob
Thompson. The staff is so deep that Joe
Howard, Greg Leighton and Bruce
Arrowood have hardly had a chance to
show their stuff.
SO
oris
Righthander Tim Collins, who
has won seven straight games for the
Carolina Summer League team, appears
headed for a brilliant Tar Heel future. Coach
Walter Rabb says Collins can be a big winner
in the ACC.
"Tim's performance really is no surprise to
me," Rab says. "We knew last year when he
was a freshman that he was going to develop
into a good college pitcher. He has a variety
of pitches and he knows how to keep the ball
low."
Collins beat Louisburg 1-0 in Tl innings
his last time out. He has the best.earned run
average in the Summer League with a mark
of 1.26.
Dale LydOCkcr is tearing the cover
off the ball as a professional in the rookie
baseball league in New York. At latest report
he was hitting .360 and the Mets were
thinking of moving him to a high
classification team.
Lydecker will come back to campus bext
month to be the kicking specialist for Bill
Dooley's football Tar Heels. Under a new
NCAA rule, a player can participate
professionally in one sport and play college
ball in another,
"We think Dale will be the best punter in
the ACC this fall," Dooley says. Lydecker
finished sixth in the nation last season with a
40.3 average, but that was only second best
in the ACC. Wake Forest's Chuck Ramsey
booted the ball out of sight and was the
national champion.
Dean Smith wi!l be guest lecturer
Aug. 1 at the prestigious Atlanta Coaching
Clinic. The Carolina coach is in great
demand to speak at clinics across the
country.
In case you don't know why, Furman
coach Joe Williams supplied the answer in a
recent statement to newsmen. "When I think
of basketball, I think of Dean Smith," said
Williams. "He's the greatest innovator in the
game today. Watch any ACC game and you
w ill see that every coach in the league, in one
way or another, copies the Dean Smith
style."

The improved defense and the
resurgence of the pitching staff give the
Tar Heels an excellent chance of
knocking off Louisburg in the playoffs.
Also the Tar Heels are really hitting the
ball now. Carolina has pounded
Campbell pitchers for 48 runs in their
last three games with the Camels.
Mike Wilkerson led the 12-hit attack
Tuesday night with two doubles and
four runs batted in, Steve Rackley had
three hits and Greg Leighton and Early
Jones contributed two apiece. Mike
Merritt pitched a four-hitter for his
fourth straight victory after a 1-3 start.
Merritt struggled for the first three
innings against Campbell but pitched a
no-hitter for the last six innings to raise .
his record to 5-3. Merritt ended with
eight strikeouts and the Camels
managed to hit only two balls to the
outfield after the third inning.
Campbell scored a run in the first and
third innings for their only runs of the
game. Frank Floyd doubled with one
out in the first, advanced to third on a
wild pitch and came home on an error
by Charlie Spivey. Al McMillan walked
to open the third, Floyd singled then Pat
Havers stroked a hit up the middle to
score McMillan.
Carolina scored three unearned runs
in their half of the first on two errors,
two walks and two hits to go ahead 3-1.
Wilkerson doubled for two more funs
in the fourth after Bill Lee walked and
Rackley singled to open the inning.
Five of Carolina's runs came after two
were out in the fifth and seventh.
Campbell's Burt Cayson struck out the
first two batters in the fifth then
Leighton beat out an infield hit, Spivey
walked and Lee singled to drive in one
run. Consecutive singles by Jones and
Rackley scored two more runs to make
the score 8-2.
Wilkerson's second double and two
singles led a four-run uprising in the
seventh to knock Cayson out of the box.
Cayson walked nine and struck out
three as his record fell to 4-5.
Carolina played Wilmington last
night and meet Louisburg at Smithfield
Saturday to end the regular season. The
Tar Heels will play the third place
finisher here Monday night at 7:30 if
they win one of their remaining games
or if Appalachain loses one. Louisburg
meets the fourth place team in the
playoffs at home. The double
elimination tournament moves to
Boshamer Stadium for the final games
Tuesday and Wednesday.
Jones fourth in batting race
Louisburg third baseman Randy Warrick
continues to hold a narrow lead over
teammate Charlie Stevens in the North
Carolina Collegiate Baseball League's
batting race.
Statistics compiled through games of July
28 show Warrick batting .380 with Stevens
at .376. They have ranked one-two in hitting
all summer. This is the last week of the
regular season.

the trip, said head coach Norman Sloan.
The only three that will not go are the
graduating seniors.
"The primary purpose of the trip, as
we see it, is to generate goodwill from
our country, to theirs," said Ail
American David Thompson.
Thompson's 26-point average led the
Wolfpack and the ACC but he was by
no means the only member of the team
to score in double figures this past
season.
Monte Towe, whose speed and
accuracy as an outside shooter offset his
lack of height, averaged 12 points a
game. So did Morris Rivers, who
transferred from Gulf Coast Junior
College in Florida.

played by his team.
North Carolina's Tim Collins and
Louisburg's Ron Mussleman continue to
dominate the pitching statistics. Collins has
the lowest earned run average of any pitcher
who has gone 40 innings with a 1 .26 mark.
His perfect 7-0 record is the best in the
league.
Mussleman also has seven victories. He
has pitched the most innings, 77, and also
struck out the most batters. 77.
Appalachian's Jim Blankenship trails
Collins in the ERA department with 1.45
mark. Carolina's Mike Merritt ranks third at
